How do I use iMovies 10 to continue my work from iMovies 9.08?

So iMovie 10 is out...but the interface is so different, I cannot immediately see how to pick up from where I left off with my projects. Is anyone yet familiar with the basics? How do I view my project, add clips from events, for example?

Hi Terry82,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
The iMovie User Guide should be able to give you some pointers.
I would suggest making a backup of your data via Time Machine, and then updating your projects and events:
iMovie Help: Update projects and events from earlier iMovie versions
http://help.apple.com/imovie/mac/10.0/#mov902ad0c31
The rest of the online manual will introduce you to the updated features.
This link will provide additional resources for iMovie:

I downloaded the newest version of firefox today 8/16/11 and now I cannot use Evernote (nor does clipmarks work from before) this is unacceptable. How do I return to the earlier version of firefox? Thank You, Carol Roberts

I downloaded the newest version of firefox today 8/16/11 and now I cannot use Evernote (nor does clipmarks work from before) this is unacceptable. How do I return to the earlier version of firefox? If there is no way to do this, then I will have to use internet explorer so I hope you can help me with this. Thank You, Carol Roberts

Until Evernote updates their add-on to mark it compatible with Firefox 6, you can use the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/add-on-compatibility-reporter/ Add-on Compatibility Reporter] to try re-enabling it yourself.
You can also downgrade to a previous version of Firefox from [https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/ this archive], but please be warned that some old versions of Firefox have known security bugs that are fixed in later versions.

How can I use Automator to extract specific Data from a text file?

I have several hundred text files that contain a bunch of information. I only need six values from each file and ideally I need them as columns in an excel file.
How can I use Automator to extract specific Data from the text files and either create a new text file or excel file with the info? I have looked all over but can't find a solution. If anyone could please help I would be eternally grateful!!! If there is another, better solution than automator, please let me know!
Example of File Contents:
Link Time =
DD/MMM/YYYY
Random
Text
161 179
bytes of CODE    memory (+                68 range fill )
16 789
bytes of DATA    memory (+    59 absolute )
1 875
bytes of XDATA   memory (+ 1 855 absolute )
90 783
bytes of FARCODE memory
What I would like to have as a final file:
EXCEL COLUMN1
Column 2
Column3
Column4
Column5
Column6
MM/DD/YYYY
filename1
161179
16789
1875
90783
MM/DD/YYYY
filename2
xxxxxx
xxxxx
xxxx
xxxxx
MM/DD/YYYY
filename3
xxxxxx
xxxxx
xxxx
xxxxx
Is this possible? I can't imagine having to go through each and every file one by one. Please help!!!

Hello
You may try the following AppleScript script. It will ask you to choose a root folder where to start searching for *.map files and then create a CSV file named "out.csv" on desktop which you may import to Excel.
set f to (choose folder with prompt "Choose the root folder to start searching")'s POSIX path
if f ends with "/" then set f to f's text 1 thru -2
do shell script "/usr/bin/perl -CSDA -w <<'EOF' - " & f's quoted form & " > ~/Desktop/out.csv
use strict;
use open IN => ':crlf';
chdir $ARGV[0] or die qq($!);
local $/ = qq(\\0);
my @ff = map {chomp; $_} qx(find . -type f -iname '*.map' -print0);
local $/ = qq(\\n);
#     CSV spec
#     - record separator is CRLF
#     - field separator is comma
#     - every field is quoted
#     - text encoding is UTF-8
local $\\ = qq(\\015\\012);    # CRLF
local $, = qq(,);            # COMMA
# print column header row
my @dd = ('column 1', 'column 2', 'column 3', 'column 4', 'column 5', 'column 6');
print map { s/\"/\"\"/og; qq(\").$_.qq(\"); } @dd;
# print data row per each file
while (@ff) {
    my $f = shift @ff;    # file path
    if ( ! open(IN, '<', $f) ) {
        warn qq(Failed to open $f: $!);
        next;
    $f =~ s%^.*/%%og;    # file name
    @dd = ('', $f, '', '', '', '');
    while (<IN>) {
        chomp;
        $dd[0] = \"$2/$1/$3\" if m%Link Time\\s+=\\s+([0-9]{2})/([0-9]{2})/([0-9]{4})%o;
        ($dd[2] = $1) =~ s/ //g if m/([0-9 ]+)\\s+bytes of CODE\\s/o;
        ($dd[3] = $1) =~ s/ //g if m/([0-9 ]+)\\s+bytes of DATA\\s/o;
        ($dd[4] = $1) =~ s/ //g if m/([0-9 ]+)\\s+bytes of XDATA\\s/o;
        ($dd[5] = $1) =~ s/ //g if m/([0-9 ]+)\\s+bytes of FARCODE\\s/o;
        last unless grep { /^$/ } @dd;
    close IN;
    print map { s/\"/\"\"/og; qq(\").$_.qq(\"); } @dd;

How can I use apps that I have purchased from Apps Store for Mac on my iPad2?

how can I use apps that I have purchased from Apps Store for Mac on my iPad2?

Thanks, varjak, it is too easy to fall into use of jargon assuming everyone understands what it means.
One additional point in all of this, not all "iDevice" apps run on every "iDevice". Some are customized for a specific device, or class of devices such as the iPod/iPhone with their smaller screen. Others for just the iPads for their larger screens. So the user needs to be sure they are getting an app that will work on their specific device.
And to Phoneboone, you do need to purchase the app again if it is for a different class of equipment. When you are looking at apps such as iWorks for the Mac and iWorks components for the iPad, the iPad versions are very inexpensive. Pages is only $10 (US) which is really cheap for such a good word processor that reads and saves in the MS Word format.
Anyway, search for what you need and just enjoy the convenience of so many options for apps.

Well if you restore your iPad that might work. If its a software issue, it might solve it. If that doesn't work, it might be a hardware issue that apple can fix.

How can I use my apple ID to buy from different app stores (different countries)?

You can only use a country's store if you are in that country and have a billing address in that country on your account - are you in the country that you want to buy content from ? If you are then you can update the billing address on your account to be your address there (if using a credit card then that will need to have been issued by a bank in that country) via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes.

How to get best picture quality using iDVD to burn a movie from iMovie?

I would appreciate any guidance on options to choose and approaches such that I get the best picture quality when I view an iMovie product on a wide screen HD TV using a DVD burned with iDVD. Choose wide screen or standard format in iMovie? Best Performance or Prof. Quality in iDVD? ...

Good Morning,
My computer is using Snow Leopard 10.6.5 and has ilife 09 installed on an imac. I have been reading it is better to use imovie 06. When I tried to do a custom install from the 06 disk imovie and idvd were grayed out but had a checkmark. It would not let me deselect idvd. Not really knowing how to do this I quite the process. Can you or someone please advise me on how and what exactly to do in order to accomplish a custom install of imovie 06? Should I delete imovie 09 first? If so how is this accomplished. Perhaps it would be less complicated to purchase photo to movie? Really do not want to spend unless it is necessary since I only know a little about what I'm doing but enough to be dangerous to my computer
Thanks,

How can I get my new camcorder to work with iMovie?

Hey
I just bought the new Panasonic SDR-SW20 and it doesn't work with a Mac.
At least that is what I read at amazon.com.
The file types it records in are .MOD files. Can these be converted?
And if they can, how do I do that and what program do I need?
Could someone maybe explain to me how I can get it to work with iMovie?
Thanks.
Bye Sandra

Hi Sandy,
Yes, you bought the wrong format of cam for working easily with iMovie HD6. Your cam records in MPEG2, which will need to be converted to DV for use in iMovie. You might want to read what the following page says about that cam's format.
http://www.camcorderinfo.com/content/Panasonic-SDR-SW20-Camcorder-Review-35018/F ormat.htm
It doesn't give a good review of the video quality and that will only get worse with the conversion necessary to work with it in HD6. If returning the cam for something more suitable is possible, unless you have bought this solely for its underwater capabilities, that might be your best bet. The best cam for use with iMovie HD versions is a miniDV cam using firewire, to capture to your Mac.
If you want to persue the workarounds, you will need to get MPEGStreamclip (free-Google it) and the Apple QuickTime MPEG2 plug-in (cost $20.00), available at the Apple downloads site.
Hope this helps you.

How can I make auto the continue and come from?

Hi:
Please sorry my grammar. I try to explain better as I can.
Let's see. I have included some internal links such as "continued on page XX" and "comes from page XX" for some items. The problem is that as I add artwork or text, the number of pages varies, and so I have to edit the "continue" and "comes from" manually. Is there any way that InDesign assign the number of pages automatically? I mean, for example, when I indicate to a text box where you should continue (usually another text box), just that I do but whith the page number of the expressions "continue" and "comes from".
I hope that I explain it well.
Regards from Lima, Perú

In English, these are called Jump Lines. If you already have a text frame that reads: continued on page XX, delete the XX, place the cursor after continued on page and go to Type>Insert Special Character>Markers>Next Page Number. Do the same with the continued from page XX, but use Type>Insert Special Character>Markers>Previous Page Number.
If you have a story that spans two or more text frames, placing a jump line frame so that it touches one of the frames of a threadded story, it will display either the page number of the previous or next frame in the thread.

How can I use a PCMCIA RS-485 card from a LabView .exe?

Hi all,
We are going to be taking a LabView application and compiling it into an executable (.exe) for use by someone who does not have LabView. This program requires use of either a National Instruments PCMCIA RS-485 card or possibly a USB RS-485 card. The question is this - how do I use the card since we will not be able to run the MAXX software ahead of time to "install" the card?
Thanks,
Jason

Hi Jason,
On this deployment machine, you will need to have NI-Serial, NI-VISA, and the LabVIEW Run-time Engine. The version of the LabVIEW run-time engine will need to be the same version as the application was developed on. This can be downloaded from the Drivers and Update page or an installer can be created to install your application as well as the necessary run-time engine.
If your application has RS-485 communication, you will need to install both NI-Serial and NI-VISA on this deployment machine. NI-Serial is the driver for the NI PCMCIA-485 or NI USB-485. The NI-Serial driver allows the devices to be properly configured and recognized in Windows. NI-VISA gives you the programming capability in LabVIEW. You can add both the VISA run-time engine and NI-Serial to your installer. You will need both of these drivers with the NI Serial hardware.
You will have to run through the "Found New Hardware" Wizard when you install the hardware initially on this deployment computer, but setting up the baud rates and communication configuration should be done in your application as normal.
I hope this helps!
Regards,
Missy S.

How do I burn 2 or more movies (shared from iMovies) into a single DVD

What is the easieast way? Can I do seperate titles for the movies, ie you can click on the movie you want to see?
Thanks!

One way is to export each movie from iMovie as a separate QT movie file and add that file to an iDVD menu window, making sure to avoid any drop zones in the menu. That way each movie will have it's own play button.
